Dantewada (Chhattisgarh)/UNI: After a period of dormancy, Maoists have murdered a village head’s tribal husband in this restive district of Left-wing extremism-affected Bastar division of Chhattisgarh, law-enforcement authorities confirmed on Saturday.
Bheema Barse – who was the spouse of Kuakonda block’s Rewali sarpanch – was abducted late Friday from his dwelling in remote Barrem.
He was then killed and the corpse was dumped at Patelpara about 4 km away.
The motive is unclear.
The area has been a rebel den for years.
